But if it's still mandatory that for custom apps (apps created for just one customer) the customer has to pay a monthly fee to Livecode for each user of that app, I will be out. I discussed that with several of my customers and all, really all, would not accept such licensing. They were even surprised about that requirement because they never heard of any other development tool requiring this.
Anyway, my life changed significantly last year, so I am currently setting different priorities anyway. But I really do hope that Livecode will be successful with their new online platform and Livecode classic, even if that would mean, that I am not on board anymore. > On the other hand, it might seem naive, but I still wonder if there's a real > need for different environments (Xojo, HyperXtalk, OpenXtalk).
